It's been more than a week since holidays began and i havent even started on my homework , save math which cant really be considered . :/

Anyway , yesterday was pretty productive (except for the whole of the morning which was spent nua-ing in bed as usual - yes today was no exception) and managed to finish 30% of maths :) Originally intended to go back to Catholic High but the newly employed security guard shoo-ed me out of the school and closed the gates for the day . Just when i thought the worst was over , it started pouring heavily and I had to run for cover at bishan north , drenched like a poor kitten .

And that was when i saw this uncle working in one of the fruits stall washing the floor even though it was raining . Initially , i laughed at him inside , for i felt he was silly trying to compete with the rain . Later , i realized he had no choice , it was an order by his boss . So there he was , washing the floor in the rain and getting drenched even more than me . Despite my soaked skin , there was both coldness and warmth within .

Warmth: For i am more fortunate than him , and therefore i shall not complain . Also , for his obedience to his higher up's orders with no complaint .

Coldness: For the higher up's almost cruel treatment of his workers . It was no difference to tying a dog to a tree and leaving him in the rain , just terrible .

Hmm . So i left the place , happy and disgusted simultaneously in the rain . Walked down to the next bus stop in the rain , but strangely , i didnt feel annoyed at the downpour , for that one incident caused the deluge of thoughts , and it just made me doubt the hierarchy of society , or maybe the world even .

But , I believe that there is hope to change .


And i feel that i've gone a little off topic (rant rant rant) . :x Alright , going to make the most out of this weekend , whatever i have left at least . :)
